You on crack? ----------------------------------- shorthair Tue Jan 13, 2004 10:37 am ----------------------------------- Take a look ath the new quiz then you will understand ----------------------------------- Maverick Tue Jan 13, 2004 1:43 pm ----------------------------------- j/k ----------------------------------- McKenzie Tue Jan 13, 2004 3:16 pm ----------------------------------- I think the purpose of this thread is to talk about the question WITHOUT giving the answer. Edit your post Maverick ----------------------------------- naoki Tue Jan 13, 2004 4:41 pm ----------------------------------- k censored ----------------------------------- shorthair Tue Jan 13, 2004 5:31 pm ----------------------------------- That wasnt a smart move maverick , now people are gettin bits all over the place , but i think the question is stupid , the answer is alot easier than what thye think the answer is ----------------------------------- Maverick Tue Jan 13, 2004 5:36 pm ----------------------------------- k censored ----------------------------------- shorthair Tue Jan 13, 2004 5:39 pm ----------------------------------- Do not just post things for no reason , thats just spaming to get bits , ----------------------------------- Maverick Tue Jan 13, 2004 5:45 pm ----------------------------------- Man I'm not trying to get bits, I have all the effects I want. Calm down shorty. ----------------------------------- McKenzie Tue Jan 13, 2004 6:04 pm ----------------------------------- Was that quote that Naoki caught aimed at me, Maverick? Why don't you take your whinny 10-year old attitude somewhere where they appreciate it. Try a Pokemon site for example. Your sig is always offensive, you're current Avatar of your home town it only funny to you, and you never have anything remotely intelligent to say. ----------------------------------- Andy Tue Jan 13, 2004 7:51 pm ----------------------------------- lol... sow em some of that arm slapping moves you did on omar today sir ----------------------------------- Whatdotcolour_Warlord Tue Jan 13, 2004 8:05 pm ----------------------------------- maverick, did you post the answer to the weekly quiz??? shame man... shame. the quiz isn't just about the bits (even though we all know the hidden power that shall be granted to he who obtains 3141592653 bits), it's also about learning. ie, if you get the right answer: good for you. either you know your stuff or you are quite good at guessing (very useful) but if you got it wrong: try doing some research so you find out the right way to do it, because in the case of this quiz, it's actually pretty useful. and while you're at it, you can learn more compsci stuff! :wink: http://yoga.at.infoseek.co.jp/flash/kikkomaso.swf Kikkoman Soy Sauce!!!111oneoneone PS: yay Kikkoman! :D ----------------------------------- shorthair Tue Jan 13, 2004 8:12 pm ----------------------------------- you can just come in here with a name like whatdotcolor warlord unless you have a relation with the whatdotcolor warrior or have his permission , i bow to know one but warrior :twisted: ----------------------------------- Amailer Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:03 pm ----------------------------------- Hey, what if you don't know turing!!! ----------------------------------- Andy Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:04 pm ----------------------------------- doesnt matter i still own u ----------------------------------- Dan Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:05 pm Re: The Compsci Quiz ----------------------------------- I gothte answer wrong to the question , but i can give a full explenation of hte right answer , but i belive that the answer for the quiz is not the most efficiant way ,i dont want to give away the answer but when the next quiz is up il explain the muc hsimpler way to do it without declaring a third variable you are saying u could do it in 3 lines with only 2 vars usig one of the methods listed other then the right one acording to the quiz? if not there is a reason why you got it wrong :roll: ----------------------------------- Maverick Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:13 pm ----------------------------------- Was that quote that Naoki caught aimed at me, Maverick? Why don't you take your whinny 10-year old attitude somewhere where they appreciate it. Try a Pokemon site for example. Your sig is always offensive, you're current Avatar of your home town it only funny to you, and you never have anything remotely intelligent to say. If you find this a bit harsh well you can : A. Get a life B. Grow up C. Go away D. Look me up E. All of the above p.s. D is a lot less fun than it sounds :clap: WTG there cheif btw D sounds "very" scary. Anyway this is just pointless now so... ----------------------------------- Dauntless Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:33 pm ----------------------------------- It's so easy to be tough over the internet. But I notice that you listened to what Mckenzie said and changed your sig at least. "Very" scared? Well at least you know when to stop. ----------------------------------- Amailer Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:34 pm ----------------------------------- /me slaps Maverick :naughty: :twisted: Hey how about some non turing question next time? (atleast like 1 turing 1 non turing, 1 turing and etc!) ----------------------------------- shorthair Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:58 pm ----------------------------------- I got 30 bits for my 2 questions and both are non turing , so you will be seeing them in a few weeks , he accepted the first 5 for bits but i dont know how many people actually gave him one, and about hte quiz this week , i got the answer wrong and then my teacher explained it , he thought that the answer on teh quiz was odd aswell but the answer does work dont get me wrong, ive just found a new way to do it. But anywho , Maverick there is no need to bring up the topics like p**n on compsci , remember its COMPUTERSCIENCE there are alot of kids here probably 12 + and we dont need to be encouraging them....... you need to calm down with the avatars , those are ofensive to some people on the site remember that , and you should listen to mackenzie becasue he has alot of knowledge ----------------------------------- McKenzie Tue Jan 13, 2004 10:03 pm ----------------------------------- The question is not language specific, but it is a programming question. (It is compsci after all) ----------------------------------- Maverick Tue Jan 13, 2004 10:36 pm ----------------------------------- It's so easy to be tough over the internet. But I notice that you listened to what Mckenzie said and changed your sig at least. "Very" scared? Well at least you know when to stop. Actually Hacker Dan told me to stop, not him. :grab: ----------------------------------- Dan Tue Jan 13, 2004 10:42 pm ----------------------------------- Well i thougth it was a realy good question b/c it teaches you somting and gets you thikinng. Also the awawer has be shown in a tutorile resteany posted on the site b4 the quiz. I dont think it is that hard, b/c you could rule out alot of the posibitys aswell. Thanks agange to McKenzie for a gr8 and contriviatle quiz question :wink: ----------------------------------- DanShadow Wed Jan 14, 2004 7:55 am ----------------------------------- Im getting kind of confused why people keep desecrating the sacred art of the "whatdotcolor" by using it in their name... Like dodge is the only one sacred enough to use it, because he was blessed by a high whatd otcolor priestess. But anyway, so whatdotcolour_warlord....where did you get that name...was it to spite the almighty dodge, or just for your outstanding and everlasting love of the whatdotcolor? ----------------------------------- Whatdotcolour_Warlord Wed Jan 14, 2004 10:46 am ----------------------------------- I come to bring forth a new era of whatdotcolour worship. That and to mess around with the icons on dodge's desktop when he's not looking. Mostly the latter. ----------------------------------- Whatdotcolour_Wizard Wed Jan 14, 2004 10:53 am ----------------------------------- And me as well, the Whatdotcolour_Wizard, will challenge the ruling dodge_tomahawk has over whatdotcolour. ----------------------------------- naoki Wed Jan 14, 2004 10:59 am ----------------------------------- maverick you're a riot who the hell would use WTG to mean "way to go?" jebus fool we like taking shortcuts in programming but not when it comes to the english language also mckenzie has big fantasticles, so don't mess with him ----------------------------------- Triple Five Wed Jan 14, 2004 11:09 am ----------------------------------- :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I see that you people fight over nothing!

Are you actually feeling threatened by a dead cat? The cat's dead already, it can't hurt you! Just remember to put soy sauce on your eggs for breakfast. ----------------------------------- Andy Thu Jan 15, 2004 8:07 pm ----------------------------------- lol come on mazer... how can you swap two vars without declaring them? do u noe who it is? ----------------------------------- Mazer Thu Jan 15, 2004 8:11 pm ----------------------------------- All I'm doing is pointing out that you claimed to be able to do that without using any variables. Sure I knew what you meant, but it's just funnier this way. And yes, of course I know who it is, the cat was killed by kikkoman. Why, didn't you see the commercial? ----------------------------------- shorthair Thu Jan 15, 2004 8:31 pm ----------------------------------- NO MAZER you idiot curiosity killed the cat , :shock: and curiosity will kill the whatdod color warrior :shock: , wowthe people maing those cccount make me laugh , its funny to see dodge wonder who the heck it is ----------------------------------- McKenzie Fri Jan 16, 2004 7:50 am ----------------------------------- Dodge, Don't post the real answer (edit your post.) As far as your answer. Works fine for int in Turing. Not all variables are Turing integers. Take for example a character. The Max size of 255 makes your solution, well ... sub-par. ----------------------------------- Maverick Fri Jan 16, 2004 11:21 am ----------------------------------- What am I regretting here?
